intelligence collection for political purposes. the context here matters. it was during the height of the debate around the iranian nuclear deal, where the political process was central. it was in the wake of the white house having taken on ownership of determining who and at what times heads of state would be collected on for signals intelligence purposes. and it was also the white house's understanding that they would get the collateral benefit of understanding the political discussions happening in congress, and certainly within the united states, at the time of this collection. and so the white house is really going to have to answer for what is a very serious and important question. >> juan, you know, you look at what the u.s. has recently done with releasing an american who was spying for israel, jonathan pollard. you also look at the reports that israel had bugged the very negotiating rooms and hotels were the nuclear negotiators were staying overseas to get insight into what the u.s. was doing.

>> absolutely fair game. i think the big boys and girls of the intelligence world understand that they are being listened to. one of the challenges of what the administration has done is to sort of unilaterally disarm in terms of collecting on certain allies and not others. it also puts the white house in an uncomfortable position of having to explain why it's decided not to collect on some leaders like angela merkel while also collecting on other allies like bibi netanyahu. >> juan zarate, thank you very much. modern a million people will start pouring into midtown manhattan for the biggest new year's eve party in the country. organizers ran a confetti test on tuesday, with colorful paper raining down on times square. security preparations are under full swing. don dahler is in times square. don, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the new york police department began their preparations for this year's new year's eve

during the three-week. >> christmas eve is about the time that i think that the really kind of concrete information came in. the problem with it was, as you can imagine, puerto vallarta christmastime a tremendous amount oftourists. >> reporter: their search eventually led mexican authorities helping with the investigation to this puerto vallarta apartment complex. according to reports, couch and his mother moved here after first staying at a resort. a picture taken shortly after couch's arrest reveals that he had dyed his blond hair black. in a statement on tuesday, couch's attorney said we have not had the opportunity to speak with our client. couch disappeared earlier this month, shortly after this video was posted to twitter. it appears to show him at a party with drinking, possibly violating his ten-year probation.

killed four people and paralyzed another in a drunk driving crash. during the trial, his defense argued that he suffered from affluenza, a controversial condition of his privileged wealthy upbringing that failed to teach him responsibility. todd clement is an important families. >> no question that ethan couch was raised in a way where he was taught to avoid responsibility, that he was taught the rules don't apply to him and his family. i think now we seeing they do apply. >> reporter: couch will likely be placed in a juvenile detention facility until he turns 19 in april. in january, there is a hearing set to move his case over into adult court. as for tonya couch, she faces a third-degree felony charge for helping him escape and that carries a sentence up to ten years in prison. let's bring in cbs news legal analyst rikki klieman. let's talk about the notion of the adult system and whether he is going to be moved.

going to be moved to the adult is? >> well, first of all, everyone seems to think that because this is a, quote/unquote, bad boy, that he is going to be brought back to this country having fled to mexico and the book is going to be thrown at him and he is going into prison for a long time. the answer to that is wrong. and we have to go back, jeff, before i get to adult status. as a juvenile, the purpose of the system is to protect the child. it isn't to rehabilitate the child. the adult system is to punish. so what is going to happen? he is going to be brought back. he can only face 120 days in jail. that's it. then the government wants to transfer him to be an adult, because that is going to adult status. why? not because they can get him any more prison time, but they can, they believe, get him ten years probation or the reminder of

years and put him on probation to 2024. so if he then breaks the law or he then violates his probation, then he is going in. government is saying four deaths? we are going to look consecutive and look for 40 years if he does another bad thing. >> yet, the mormther faces a third-degree felony charge. >> the mother may do more time than the son. the mother is facing third-degree felony charge two to ten years because she hindered the government from getting her son by taking him off to mexico. you have to remember consistency here, margaret and jeff. what happened originally was they argued through the defense that this was the parent's fault, this permissive household and world of affluenza and why the parent should be responsible. i'll say an end of the year observation that i think we ought to look at.

boy who got a break, is too kind of a word, when he, by virtue of, quote/unquote, affluenza got probation. if he were a young man of color, you would not see that happen. that's why people get upset with the system. >> rikki klieman, thank you. political tall tales reached new heights this year. ahead a look at some of the xajs exaggerations on the campaign trail. if you're heading out to work, set your dvr so you can watch "cbs this morning" this morning. you don't want to miss seth doane's rare look inside north korea. we will be right back. phil! oh no...

>> a new netflix series raises

wisconsin murder case like the podcast serial and hbo's "the jinx." making a murderer has reignited interest in a crime that vanished from the public spotlight. michelle miller shows us why many are wondering if an innocent man was framed twice. >> good morning. "making a murderer" focuses on steve avery who has a lengthy rap sheet but spent 18 years in prison for a rape he didn't commit. he was finally exonerated in 2003 by dna evidence. just two years later, avery was back behind bars, this time accused of murder. >> you know, we're all victims. they just won't leave us alone. they keep it up and keep it up. >> when it became clear he was the suspect in teresa halbach's death, steve avery claimed he was being set up. >> so you're telling me somebody planted the body? >> i didn't do it. >> who did it? >> i don't know.

blood in it was discovered in the avery family salvage yard. the 25-year-old's cremated remains were just steps away from his trailer. avery's teen age nephew, -- brendan dassey confessed to being an accomplice. >> who shot her in the head? >> he did. >> why didn't you tell us that? >> i didn't think of it. >> avery says police manipulated a frightened boy with a learning disability. he later recanted to his mother. >> did you? huh? >> not really. >> what do you mean not really? >> do that. >> halbach was raped and murdered in 2005, one year after avery filed a $36 million civil lawsuit for his wrongful conviction. that suit had embarrassed

officials in manitowoc county. two officers from that case also worked the halbach investigation and helped find her car keys inside avery's bedroom. >> i'm at the avery salvage. >> investigators were on the salvage yard for eight days looking for clues. >> i didn't see them plant evidence with my own two eyes. i didn't see it. do i understand how human beings might be tempted to plant evidence? i don't have any difficulty understanding those human emotions at all. >> avery was convicted in 2007 for the halbach murder and sentenced to life in prison. lower a ricardy and moira demos spent ten years on "making a murderer." >> we were very thorough and in our opinion very accurate and very fair. >> district attorney ken kratz told "cbs this morning" the netflix series leaves out key dna and other evidence,

showing avery lured halbach to the salvage yard. kratz said the suggestion investigators framed avery was, quote, irresponsible and inconsistent with the consideration of all the evidence presented. the filmmakers say their goal is to document avery's case as it unfolded in its entirety. >> our question going in was never about guilt or innocence or about trying to solve this crime. it was really an exploration into the system. >> and teresa halbach's family did not respond to our request for comment. before the series was released, they issued a statement saying they were saddened that people were creating entertainment and trying to profit from their loss. we also reached out to other police and prosecutors mentioned in "making a murderer." they either did not respond or declined to give interviews to "cbs this morning." >> thanks, michelle. >> thank you.

countries in the world invited us in for a visit, but within some very strict limits. >> is this the last trip? >> the last trip we interview people, we can't come to north korea. >> seth doane learns the north korean definition of press freedom but still gets insight into the so-called hermit kingdom. that's ahead on "cbs this morning."a complete, anway to support... ...your energy... ...immunity... and metabolism like never before. centrum multigummies. see gummies in a whole new light. everyone needs a bff. even your smile. colgate optic white toothpaste goes beyond surface stains to whiten over 3 shades. in fact, it whitens more than the leading express whitening strip. it's your smile bff. whiten more just by brushing. all: milk! milk! milk! milk! milk! okay! fun's over.

north korea, this morning, introduced the official in charge of relations with south korea was killed in a traffic accident. state media gave no details of what happened. another sign of the country's secrecy. leader kim jung un. earlier this year north korea did allow journalists inside the reclusive nation. our seth doane was among them. >> reporter: reporting from north korea is equal parts fascinating and frustrating. there is no doubt they are masters at putting on a show. this is saber rattling on a very grand scale.

performance and what is real. north korea's government granted permission for us to visit this fall. we were bussed around like tourists. we cannot choose where we will go. we are brought to different places. today, we are being brought to the birth place of kim ilsun. he is the grandfather of kim jong-un jong-un. this secretive state. they took us deep down into a metro station. even here, it was hard to know what was staged. asking folks didn't add much clarity, especially with a government assigned minder controlling with whom we could speak. how about this lady here? we haven't asked. can we ask? still it was clear just how deeply the government touches

why do you want to wear kim il song? do you wear that pin every day? nrs this >> translator: this isn't get off even one hour. >> reporter: we were granted access to this secretive country but like we were ushered around a city and shown seats to a show. there were actual performances which demonstrated the softer side of this nuclear armed state. unbelievably the government took us to a doff fin performance. here the aim couldn't possibly have been to wow us with the tricks these marine mammals could do. the real show was next to us in the stands. seemingly happy and apparently middle class north koreans. wait. i just want to talk to some of the people who came. >> no. no time. >> reporter: we don't have time? we tried again outside.

until our minder lost his patience. >> we have to go. if you want this to be your last trip, do you it. >> reporter: last trip? meaning if we interview people, we can't come to north korea? >> you can't come. >> reporter: this military parade was the focal point of our visit and it's what the wanted us foreign journalists to broadcast home, a strong north korea. one of the things that you can't quite appreciate when you see this on television is with all of this goose stepping while you're standing here, the ground is shaking. but what struck us even more than the military might were the faces of those everyday people looking up at their leader kim jong-un in awe. could that possibly be an act? afterwards, we asked parade goer kim sue ha about the anti-american rhetoric we have seen and heard here. i'm an american, what do you think about that? i didn't know you were american, but it's quite surprising, she

what i've read about in books. there it was. a glimpse of something authentic. a sense that so much could be accomplished if we could only communicate for real. for "cbs this morning," i'm seth doane in pyongyang, north korea. >> so interesting to watch. >> seth did a good job. >> he did. can we talk to that person? no, they don't want to talk. i haven't asked her yet. >> at a dolphin show. you're not as evil as i thought you'd be. recent tornadoes ripped away pets from their owners. we will show you the emotional rescue of one dog trapped in the rubble for two"billboard" the original guns n' roses band will be going on tour next spring. they're reportedly scheduled to be one of the first acts to play at the new las vegas arena after it opens in april! sources also

already watched the rescue on our facebook page. they liked it as much as i did. if you want to see or share the video go to facebook.com/cbsthismorning. a scandal surrounding high-end chocolate pushed the phrase bean to bar into the mainstream. the mast brothers chocolate company is accused of using remelted chocolate from another brand in some of its products. the brothers say they only did so in their early days and never lied to consumers. part of a larger debate about so-called artisan products. research shows americans want more information about what they are eating. 59% look for products labeled natural and 66% search for locally produced items. suzanne vranica, thank you for being here. >> thank you for having me. >> reporter: the mast brothers acknowledge they use some remelted chocolate and say they never labeled those beans to bar but we said this is part of a bigger issue. >> absolutely.

weeks another company is getting hauled into the social media sphere and everybody is attacking them because guess what. some of their marketing is not holding up to the product. all of those back to the changes that we are seeing in consumers eating habits, right? everybody is looking to be healthier. they are looking for simple source and they are looking for gmo-free products. and so companies are responding because people are abandoning products that aren't healthy so what do you do? you have to sort of use marketing techniques and different words. clearly they are trying to make better products in many cases but, a lot of times this is simple marketing. when it is marketing and it falls through, that is when you're in trouble from a company's perspective. >> the people are looking for truth in advertising but you're saying like any other business? >> it's business and companies are driven by profit margins and shareholder value. it's in conflict to what goes to making this stuff.

to spend 9 dollars a bar? >> they think it's better. different way. if you really want to spend $9 it depends on your taste. if it tastes better to you, then you should buy $9th.. today you have all of the tools necessary to figure out what is really in it. it's really up to the consumer. you shouldn't be believing advertising to begin with. do your homework. go to website and clearly they can lie but nine times out of ten these things are going to them. >> you still have to do research when people say organic is it so many labels. >> that video is great. when you about what is going on here you take it back to the natural craze. we saw that the last couple of years. natural was on every product and government agencies had to get involved. right now, the fda still doesn't have an official meaning on the word natural so companies can slap it on.

they have, no artificial or synthetics substances. but they actually are opening up for review and they are asking the public to comment so maybe they will come out with something stronger that companies can abide by. i think 40 billion dollar food business that uses the word natural and a huge business. it doesn't mean it can be interpreted by different companies in a different way. very few people out there checking up on this, right? there is not a whole task force looking at advertising every day. >> it's not just the word. it's the colors and the labeling the way they do it put trees and leaves on it and make it look -- it looks green and you just automatically think it's better, right? >> people just want to buy in. we always have bought into imagery and advertising is always going to be around and they get clever at it. today it's artisanal. >> mcdonald's has an artisinal chicken sandwich. >> i think people think it

>> right, handmade but lots of wiggle room because nobody has defined it at least from the fda's perspective. companies have a lot of wiggle room. if you want to spend the extra buck then you need to do your homework and sometimes it's not very clear so you have to wait for somebody to do a big expo say on a company. seeing this in suburban category. lots of companies are removing the word natural from their products because there was a rash of consumer lawsuits against them. so it will take time and, guess what. two weeks from now a new word we will be talking about and a new marketing technique we will be talking about and get us to pay more. >> in the meantime, i'm looking at the chocolates there. >> margaret wants a chicken sandwich right now. >> i just want the chocolate version. suzanne, thank you. hollywood's newest "it" girl found her spot on the movie set. >> i'm able to call what i call

>> reporter: right. >> you need to find why. >> reporter: then you start to understand some part of yourself maybe too? >> yes. it could be quite terrifying. i see a lot of things in your subconscious, i think. >> reporter: she landed her biggest role yet in the fifth installment of "the bourne franchise" with matt damon. do the stakes seem higher somehow? when you make a bourne film, you know you're making an international blockbuster. >> especially with the bourne movies, i have seen them and they seem surreal stepping on the set and somebody says this. i'm like, whoa. you realize it is one of those films. maybe you should see a doctor. >> reporter: what is the most for you? >> if you come on set and you feel like you believe in this film and it's something that you care about, everyone does their

is something that i love that creation that you do with all of the people. >> reporter: as much as you aspire to with every film, you just can't guarantee it? >> no. that is why it's also so special when you feel it because i think you long for that feeling. >> reporter: including the bourne sequel, she will star in another four films set for release in 2016 which is why a cover story in the january issue of "vogue" calls it "the year of alicia vik anner." >> she was great. >> she is great in almost everything i've seen her in and especially extraordinary for a foreign actress. >> right. another big import to the american film industry. interesting. you're watching "cbs this morning."
